What Does This Mean?
Good morning to all my favorite WAers family. I want to ask a question about some comments that I've been receiving over the past month.
This comment always only ever has one-word 'Reboot' in it but has different email addresses.
I'm wondering if it is someone trying to hack into my website. I usually trash them.
Has anyone else ever received this strange comment?
Thanks my friends,
Have a great week!
Warm Regards,
Lily

I would use their email and spam them back. Lol. Maybe we all should. 1 million plus emails would slow them down. Mwahahaha, evil laugh. Lol.

OMG Zoopie, then you become the spammer, I used to have these thoughts many years back save their emails and flood them with junk until you realise all your sending is a massive amount of your time in sending junk to another spammer email address, that is then used to 'collect' active email addresses, which will render you an easy target. Anyway i am not here to lecture am hope I can persuade you to do nothing, click alt delete as we used to say.
I have never had such a problem, and would guess it's the spam pirates. You might ask Site Support what they suggest.
Hi FKeso, honestly there is nothing anyone can do apart from being vigilante at what we do in our business. Spammers are everywhere, black hat marketers are out there tricking you into giving away valuable information about your self and your business. Just be prepared with using the right plugins which many are free, and never reply to any comment until you are 100% sure it is a genuine comment. Spammers use comments like,'this is great stuff' you then click like, *Boom* your on their hit list. Stay vigilant and never be an easy target for anyone...
I have never had that happen, Lily.
I guess that it is spam and would recommend a plugin such as Siobhan uses. I see Bill also uses a spam plugin.
I do receive some spam and will consider installing a plug, too.

Hi ValerieJoy, our websites are your livelihood, think of these as your home, we all have to protect our property and our websites are just the same. Never second guess anything important than protecting your website, Wordfence is a great plugin to help you with protecting your website, the cool thing about these plugins their free plugin works well enough to give you total satisfaction and keeps your website and products safe.
Thanks for your advice, Bill.
I have WP Armour installed on both of my sites.
Do you know if WP Armour is as efficient as Wordfence?
I would appreciate your opinion.
Great advice Valerie. I think I will go install a plugin so this doesn't happen again.
Thanks for your support.
Lily
You're very welcome, Lily.
Installing an appropriate plugin is a wise move.
Well done on your decision.

Fitness niche is a great niche to be in but take Fitness as the main niche then break it down into sub-niches, ie weight loss, lifestyle, fitness, diet etc, then break down these sub niches into other sub niches, so for example Fitness can be broken down to How to keep fit without a gym!, Get a killer body in 30 days, study your niche well and take lots of notes and compile these into a blog post this is great way of getting your website loads of traffic. Remember one thing! A Blog is the most important part of your website, if anyone tries to tell you something different then they are only after selling you something.

I have this problem at all the times, and as much as 30 of this type,
*I just delete them, as no real or relevant comment was given...*
It could be that it started to happen to me
when someone last year kickstarted a spam bot to my Site,
I had to delete that particular plugin for comments...
and yeah some people are very maleficent!
